SLEEVE HOLDER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 5, 1907.

Application filed April 30,1906. Serial No. 314,390.

To fb/l /1071? vim/y concern/.-

Be it known that I, ALEXANDER T. MoonE, a citizen of the United States,resiuing at New Orleans, in the parish of Orleans and State ofLouisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sleeve-Holicrs, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a sleeve-holder, and particularly to a deviceby which the cuff of the sleeve may be aajustcil at eilferent tistancesabove the wrist of the wearer.

The invention has for an object to provide attaching clevicesforinstance, hooksfor the sleeve, carried bylateral strands at the oppositeends of a connecting-strand, whereby the sleeve may be engaged at(.ill'erent poii'its-such, for instance, as the front and back thereof.

A further object of the invention is to provife a novel anil improve-:1construction of the attaching-pin, in which a spring-pressed. headcontacts with the pin to prevent its accidental withdrawal from thefabric of the sleeve to which it is applied.

Other and further objects advantages of the invention will behereinafter set forth and the novel features thereof defined by theappended claims.

In the erawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the applicationcf the invention to a shirt-sleeve. Fig. 2 is an elevation of theholder. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view 0 f the attaching-pin, and.Fig. f a side elevation of the pin.

Like numerals of reference refer to like parts in the sevc al figures ofthe drawings.

The numeral 1 im icates a band. or cord device 4 is shown in Fig. 3

and. with a head 8, formed by bcnfiing laterally the free end of thebody at this place. The other free end of the body of the attachment isbent upon itself, as shown at 7, and

and comprises a 1 pin having its body formed with a coiled por- 1 tion5, through which the strand is passed,

sharpened to form a pin-point 6, disposed in contact with the head. Thehead 8 is bent inward from the body at the place 9, so as to form aprojection which when pressed inwanl removes the head from contact withthe pin to permit its many insertion and removal from the goods.

In the application of the invention as shown in Fig. 1 it will be seenthat the attaching Ievices are applied. at nilferent places about theslecvefor instance, at the front and rear thereof. 'i'his permits anindependent anjustment of the sleeve at the different places, such asover the elbow, so as to secure the comfortable lioleing thereof analavoiding all binning of the sleeve upon the arm of the user, as isliable to occur when the sleeve is held at only one place.

In the operation of this invention the attaching-pins at one end of eachof the lateral strands are applied to the fabric of the sleeve and thelatter rawn up to the desired extent and the other pin then applied toretain the sleeve at its aejusted position. These attaching-pins may bereadily applied and removed by cepres 'ig the spring-held head thereof,which also by its pressure against or toward the pin-point prevents theaccidental witlulrawal of the pin from the goods. The attaching-pins areformed from a single piece of material as well as the connecting-strand, so that the invention is ren- (lCI'Cil very simple andC(JOllOllllOttl of manufacture and efficient in use, as it entirely '-?sthe binning and side drawing of a sleeve-holder applied at only one sideor place on the sleeve.

Having described my invention anti set forth its merits, what I claim,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A sleeve-holder comprising a flexible cord. provided with loopportions at its opposite ends, and attaching devices carried by theopposite en s of each loop.

2. A SlCCVC-llOlt.(lI' comprising a flexible cord having its free cnzslooped andv SCCUIOZI to the bony thereof at each end, andattaching-hooks carried by the opposite en-Lls of each loop.

In testimony whereof I allix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

ALEXANDER T. MOORE.
